IL is now averaging 50k #COVID tests per day, w/ more than 3.8M tests to date. All w/ little to no help from the Trump Admin, which still has NO national testing strategy six months into this pandemic. Many thanks to @GovPritzker & his team for their leadership during this time. — PolitiTweet.org

With Americans forgoing their vacations to stay home for the safety of their families & neighbors, the hotel industry has taken a major hit. Today I spoke w/ @Illinois_Hotels about extending fiscal support to lodging industry to address this financial crisis before it’s too late. — PolitiTweet.org

More than 30 million children in our country rely on school meals. The @USDA must take action now to ensure that no child goes hungry during this unprecedented #COVID19 crisis. https://t.co/KxFbu2ZyMJ — PolitiTweet.org

The @NationalGuard has been critical in implementing testing plans & supporting medical professionals during the #COVID19 crisis. The federal government must pay the full cost of keeping Guardsmen on the ground as states struggle with their own significant revenue loss. — PolitiTweet.org

I encourage Rep. Kinzinger & entire IL Congressional Delegation to work w/ me to undo the disastrous policies put into place by the Trump Admin & Congressional Republicans, which have hurt these plants & employees, & work to pass smart legislation that supports clean energy jobs. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
And Congressional Republicans supported the Trump Administration’s efforts to overturn the Obama-era Clean Power Plan, which helped support nuclear energy. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Unfortunately, Pres. Trump & Congressional Republicans have pursued policies that hurt nuclear energy & the thousands of good paying jobs that they support. The Trump Admin passed rule to nullify IL’s clean energy program that supported nuclear power plants like Byron & Dresden. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The closure of these plants will have significant impacts on local economy & workers. In days & months ahead, I’m committed to fighting for these jobs & helping create additional good paying jobs, as well as creating a clean energy econ w/ policies like my Clean Future Fund Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator McConnell needs to bring the Senate back to Washington immediately. This virus isn’t going to magically go away on its own & our economy isn’t going to fix itself. The American people are counting on Congress to help them get through these difficult times. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Admin has attacked LOP and tried to end it, but Congress stood in opposition on a bipartisan basis. The program is capable of expanding. Every ICE detainee should have access to LOP. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Legal Orientation Program (LOP) helps more than 50,000 detained immigrants a year know their rights, increasing efficiency of immigration courts & reducing detention costs. I’m joining @RepChuyGarcia & @RepRobinKelly in calling for an expansion of LOP access in Illinois. https://t.co/rKA25hdgxz — PolitiTweet.org

The CDC must immediately explain why they are dramatically altering their COVID-19 testing recommendations. These decisions must be based on science—not political interference—and the CDC owes the American public an explanation. https://t.co/ka4irOx5Z9 — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks 3 years since the Burmese military undertook its latest campaign of violence against the Rohingya people in Burma's Rakhine state, forcing 700,000+ people to flee to Bangladesh. The Rohingya deserve justice & the Burmese gov't & military must be held accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Admin’s illegally appointed Acting DHS Secretary is breaking the law. Again. @DHS had no right to pause DACA renewals in the first place. SCOTUS rejected Pres. Trump’s repeal of DACA. That means the Trump Admin must fully reopen DACA or the courts will force them to. — PolitiTweet.org

While the Trump Admin tries to explain away its incursions into the independence of immigration courts, its supposedly neutral policies tip the scales of justice against immigrants during the #COVID19 crisis. Read our letter: https://t.co/FtgUagPqv2 — PolitiTweet.org
